A hair splinter, sometimes called a hair sliver, happens when a strand of hair pierces through the top layer of your skin. This may sound like a minor injury, but hair splinters can be very painful, especially if they become infected.Hair splinters look very similar to other splinters caused by wood or other materials. In some cases, only part of the strand embeds itself under your skin, leaving the rest of the strand exposed | Sam's Barber Shop LLC
